The disgraced cyclist Lance Armstrong is reported to have confessed to using
performance-enhancing drugs for the first time in an interview recorded with
Oprah Winfrey last night.

He also called his lifetime ban “unfair”, according to The New
York Times.

The paper, which cited “two people briefed on the interview”, said that
Armstrong, 41, told Winfrey that he was prepared to testify against several
powerful people involved in the sport of cycling who knew about his doping
and possibly facilitated it. They are said to include officials from the
International Cycling Union, the worldwide governing body,
